Golfer Reviews
Some great holes.
The course was in good shape even with the heavy dose of rain.
Unbelievable Value with GolfNow Pricing!
Whittaker Woods is a beautiful and challenging course that is a fair value even at full price. Playing it with the GolfNow discount made it an unbelievable value!
The course is very well maintained and really beautiful throughout all 18 holes. Whittaker Woods challenges you to think your way around the course with shot selection, club selection and the need to carefully read the greens. The clubhouse and facilities were all top notch.
I look forward to going back soon and often.
Terrific course. Beautiful setting.
Whittaker Woods is fast becoming the 'must play' facility of any golfer's summer vacation. "Woods" is the operative descriptor of this lush and challenging course. Add a steady breeze to a bright sunny day--as my 2 playing partners and I encountered, and the round becomes a few strokes tougher. The pristine fairways are surrounded by long fescue, creeks, and ponds in addition to the ball-swallowing woods. The greens are true and fast, but fair. Worth an hour's drive, and with the GolfNow deal, it's got to be on your 'courses to play' list.
The course was beautiful!
The restaurant served great food and Jaimie are waitress/bartender was super friendly. The golf course was beautiful and well maintained. The course is a little challenging, we lost a lot of balls in the narrow fairways.
Overall very nice course!
This course was gorgeous! It is well maintained from tee boxes, fairways, to the greens. Very challenging being there are narrow fairways and many hazards to start off every hole. I would definitely try this course again but make sure to bring all my leftover golf balls to lose first.
everything went perfect
would not have played if it wasn't for golfnow ! GLAD I DID ! THANK YOU
Bring lots of balls
Course has lots of tall grass, blind shots and narrow fairways. I would recommend this course to anyone who has a average to better than average game. If your an average player or less I would suggest playing from the white tees.
Whittaker Woods Course Review
Course was in great condition and staff was friendly.
However, only five groups were on the entire course, so no beverage cart was running. It was a hot day!!
Great course, a little tricked up.
Played the white tee's on a beautiful but, very hot day. Course in excellent condition, greens beautiful, stimped about 9 or 10. Definitely a course you need to play more then once to figure out where not to hit it. A lot of blind shots from the tee's or only partial views of fairways due to tall vegetation. Great course, great layout, super condition but, needs blind shot attention.
Great Course
If you live in Chicagoland area and like to play golf, this course is awesome. Especially when you can get a great deal on golfnow.
Remember it is an hour ahead of Chicago time.
Very good course, excellent staff
Sand traps were a bit hard and unkept, but the scenery was wonderful with the voluptuous rolling mounds. Greens were excellent.
Worth the trip and more
This is the second time I have played this course. I played in the spring before the trees filled in. Now it is in prime condition. It has resort quality staff and amenities. A beautiful day, dropped off my better half at the Casino just 5 minutes down the road. The course I found to be on a par with any place you can play. I have played a number of top 100 courses and Whittaker woods takes a back seat to none of them. The Tees, Fairways and greens are immaculate. Even with the recent rains it was perfect! You can get a very reasonable rate if you keep your eye's peeled but even at the standard weekend rate the course is a bargain. I will be back. I would play there more often if not for the two hour drive from Plainfield IL and the abundance of cousres in that area
One of the nicest course I have ever played!
This course was like playing off of carpet in the fairways and greens were fantastic! The rough had grown up and you were penalized for not hitting the fairways - which you should be! Great, great time and wish I had tim to play it again. Love it!!
One of the most beautiful and challenging courses in the Midwest
Great day at Whittaker Woods.. the golf was very difficult but fair and the course was in great shape. The variety of terrain, well designed holes and well maintained greens made for a great day. Well worth the visit. I highly recommend it but stay on the fairways.
enjoyable, nice course.
Good help, great course with a well maintained greens and
fairways. I enjoyed the day!!
Very friendly staff at well mintained course
Played there two days. One better than than the other. 1st day wide open, next day stacked up and slow play. Nice challenging golf course with fairways and greens in great shape. Never did get GPS on phone to work after many promises. Was a drawback as course is not real well marked for distance. Staff very friendly and accomodating when possible.
Love This Course!
One of the nicest courses in the area. The course design is awesome and the only thing better is all the employees and the food in the restaurant and bar. Thanks!
Don't miss out!
If you live in Chicago and have a day to spare go play this course! It' was just a random pick out of the blue for me but turned out to be an awesome surprise.
If only 5 groups were on the course, how was the pace of play so slow?
